Madalitso Muthiya

Madalitso Muthiya (born 8 February 1983) is a Zambian golfer. He took up golf at the age of nine and at fifteen he caught the attention of Zambian president Frederick Chiluba, who helped to arrange for him to play a junior tournament in the United States, the 1999 Nolan Henke/Patty Berg Junior Masters in Fort Myers, Florida. Muthiya won in the 16- to 18-year-old age group. He went on to play college golf at the University of New Mexico before turning professional in 2005. He finished second in the 2006 Zambian Open and joined the Canadian Tour in 2006. However his main claim to fame is that in 2006 he came through qualifying to become the first Zambian and black African to play in the U.S. Open. He missed the cut.
